[wtp-dev] M and I builds declared

[David M Williams <david_williams@xxxxxxxxxx>]

There remains some failing JUnits, but
it is suspected these are related to
and infrastructure changes  external
to Eclipse. See bug 171709. 
(These infrastructure changes can effect
some end-user functions, but 
it is not in our immediate control).
We are looking at how to fix the 
infrastructure issues (since it happens
to be with ibm.com) and long 
term looking to make our functionality
less fragile to such changes. 

See https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=171709

But otherwise, 
1.5.3
Fri, 26 Jan 2007 -- 14:24 (UTC)  
should be considered near our release
candidate for 
Callisto Winter Maintenance Release
(scheduled for 2/16). 
This code stream is now is "lock
down" mode and any further 
changes require PMC review and approval.

The absolutely-no-more-changes-unless-the-machine-catches-fire
date is 2/9, but we encourage 
all adopters to begin their rigorous
acceptance testing now to 
be sure no regressions have slipped
past us. 

[John will soon provide updates on exact
steps of the PMC approval request procedure, 
and a web page to summarize status of
PMC requests].
